Why won't your die....?!

I still have this damned headache. It's day 3 now. This headache must die.

I am just horrible with headaches. I get cranky and very unproductive. I have tried everything I normaly do to kill headaches. The only thing that has worked so far is Dayquil and taking that for a headache just doesn't seem right. That and it knocks me out as well as any sleeping potion.

I have tried as much acetaminophen as as I dare: 320mg, about as much as 1 regular strength Tylenol tablet. Anymore then that and I'll just feel crappy from taking too much acetaminophen. That's what I get for never taking Tylenol like all the other teens did.

My normal remeady, sleep, has failed me. I am trying to keep myself up even later tonight in an attempt to get a deeper sleep and therefore, hopefully a more restful sleep.

I guess I should try eating some old fashioned veg food instead of my normal lazy substitutions. I'll have some beans and corn or something like that, just in case I am missing some vital food combo to make some elusive amino acid or something.

I have the nagging feeling this is food related. It might also do with the fact that even though my back is still not quite right I have to find some way to get really active, not just stretching. Maybe I'll start to take a walk everyday. It can't hurt. I know I can walk fine. It's the only activity that physio dude isn't antsy about. ('cause I know he hates the way I sit)

I bought some energy bars to help shake my unhealthy and poor fiscal dependancy on Breakfast Anytime shakes (see last entry). These are cheaper and I am pretty sure they are better for me. It's hard to compare % to amounts. My brain just doesn't want to work today.

I just hope it goes away before Shaggy's patience runs out. I hate when he gets annoyed by my not feeling well. It's not like I ask to feel like crap. I just do. I muddle through it the best I can and try to smile and be as normal as I can for him, even though it bites me in the butt later ("Well, you were acting normal half the time.") I'd rather deal with his complaining when I feel better then when I feel like this. At least my brain will work quick enough to do something about it.

I feel better today, and I have done a lot of productive things today, they just aren't very visable. Not as much to show for as a clean house I guess. It's harder to show off a nice cover letter. Especially to someone who has never really had to actually look for a job, let alone one in a big town like this.

Sometimes, I wish just for one day Shaggy and I could switch. He's always been healthy and he's always been one step away from a solution. His brain seems so much less fuzzy then mine.

Then I mentally smack myself and remember that I love him. It's not very nice to wish ill to those you love. Especially when those who love you are so very few and far between.

For those who are used to my happy shiny posts, I am sure we will get back to our regularly schedualed program, just as soon as I shake off this headache.

I told you all I get cranky ....

I guess this is what happens when I try to blog daily. Day 6! That must be double my previous record.

Now for credits. I reused an icon today, so obviously if you wanna know where I got the screen cap then go look at yesterday's post.

The nifty scan I used for my mood is from here:


House of Black Doujinshi is a really cool doujinshi (Japanese fan made comic. Think fan fic in comic form!) review and scan site. Good place to go if you just don't know which doujinshi are worth your hard earned money.
